4.10 you may lose mpg....unless you went with slightly larger tires....hell I get decent mpg with my 4.56's and 35" tires now....truck drives like stock (well a little better cause of other mods)
just my 2 cents though

i have that. its a little sluggish, but an acceptable price for the bigger tires.
its important to have a fixed plenum, and a superchips helps a lot.
the superchips also fixed a shifting problem with OD and TC Lock (too early) and it corrects the speedometer.
you can get one for $200-250.
edit. $240 here, brand new...

4.10's are better, but be prepared for a big price (1000-2000) on a 4wd, since you have to change both axles.

I have 285/70R16 on mine and the Chrysler 3.55 gears in the rear. Its not too bad honestly, the 5.9 makes up for whatever loss there is. Plus you get more contact patch on the tire, enhances traction, pleasure of driving, and safety. Only thing is if you get aftermarket wheels then they'll stick out about a half an inch.

here is a video of me at the truck pulls last week, i had my 285/75/16's on with the 3.55's , i pulled 182' and i was in a High output class which my truck is not HO by any means but i think i did pretty good with those tires on, if i had my 35's stuff would started preaking and i wouldnt have gone anywhere.
